I truly enjoyed this movie. Tom Cruise really showed his acting chops again as well as Elizabeth Bluth. And Bill Paxton was perfect for his role.

I still don't get the "No sir, I'm from Kentucky" barb.

Steer clear of the older movies about him. They did a couple like a decade ago, but the main character is a bear and he smokes weed instead of bombing people. Totally not accurate.

I thought it was a good watch and Brendan and Hong Chau were fantastic. I think everyone acted well, actually, but Ellie was just written too over-the-top mean for me where I almost rolled my eyes as soon as she started acting out every time. I mean, I know kids can act like that, hell I probably have, but not that sustained. That's my only dislike really. I was refreshed her Mom called her on it.

I guess I liked all the acting better than the whole of the movie.

Ah, that makes more sense

Not a favorite of mine.

> The real reason not to do it is that you'd be removing two awards from the show. People watch the Oscars to see famous people win awards.

So don't remove two awards. Increase the number of people who get to win.

Basically, turn the acting awards into a top 5 instead of a top 1. Nominate 10 people for lead, and 10 people for supporting, and then reward the top 5 in both categories. Now you have 10 pretty and famous people all standing up and winning statues and smiling like the Prom Court they are.

Gender categories - removed

number of famous people being rewarded - increased.

I hope this song wins.

Limitless. Absolutely loved the movie . . . when I eventually saw it. But when it came out, I was like, "Yeah, yeah, another movie about some new super-drug. I'll pass." Even when friends were telling me it was great and highly recommending it, I still ignored it. Yet, the film was actually much different than what I initially expected.

But, that being noted, if I had really known what the film was all about, it would have spoiled some of the pleasurable surprise I got from watching it.

Lethal weapon 5 already came out right? 👀

Enjoyed atomic blonde so hopefully the sequel will be good.

Brightburn is getting a sequel? The premise of the first film was great, the film itself wasn't, so hopefully they can improve on that.

It was also a critical success as well

I just acknowledge the ones i know about. There's bound to be some inaccuracies.

When I first heard NC was playing Dracula in an upcoming movie, I rolled my eyes. But I didn't expect this! This looks great!

They had Santana and Antonio Banderas play Jorge Drexler’s song in 2005 because of ratings. Drexler went on to win, fuck the Oscars

>I cannot imagine how bad Twitter would be

Yes you can.

You don't even have to have an imagination, honestly.

The question is why everyone defaults to wondering what a known tire fire will smell like when someone threatens to pour gasoline on it.

At the time Kruger was one of the best villains we had had in a long time

I don’t know about bad advertising but very minimal advertising is the case for Wrath of Man. Awesome movie!

He starts off describing his childhood, we get a snapshot of his future as a rich man. We get to see his struggles to try and make money first and his introduction to Wall Street. It is only quite a bit into the film where he is introduced as an arsehole. He isn't a very sympathetic character but he at least starts as a charismatic character and we are only introduced to his flaws later on. (Really at the dinner scene where we are introduced to 4 of his colleagues in one go.)

Peter Jackson from Bad Taste,Meet The Feebles to Heavenly Creatures.

My 8 year old aged out and my 3 year old aged in. Fml.

That’s the legendary Martin Scorsese 💯

It’s interesting to notice how many superhero movies that usually warrant more in-depth discussion in my circles are those who purposefully seem to steer away from some of the common tropes of the genre and/or just try to tell a cohesive story.

“The Dark Knight” movies aspire to be neo-noir thrillers that just happen to follow the POV of a man who dresses like a bat; one of the reasons why it can be enjoyed by people other than Batman fans. “The Joker” is a competent (if derivative) character study that coincidentally coexists with the whole Gotham mythos, and so on and so on.

I’m not trying to say superhero movies are not cinema (how would one begin to define cinema anyway), but I think an argument could be made to say Scorsese was not wrong to categorize them as “theme parks”, or to think they’re essentially a very refined delivery method of escapism.

JoJo Rabbit

Errr, that was his character though? His character was never a "badass", he was always a whiny, narcissistic, brown nosing psychopath that wanted to appear to be "badass" while always just being kind of pathetic.

Fantastic job on that though, giving his villain a ton of depth while still making him a fun villain to hate, while all the two main leads just look a bit lost.

Yes, I’m talking about the comic books from that period and how they managed a similar process to what the MCU is in now.
